Black diamond Bridger Bowl, MT
Powder Hog drops 546 vertical feet over 2,213 feet of skiing, with a steepest pitch of 27° about 260 feet below the top. That's steeper than 36% of the 4,740 black diamond runs we've measured in North America, and the 15th steepest of 46 named runs at Bridger Bowl. It faces northeast.
Facing northeast at an average 14°, Powder Hog gets about 71% of the winter sun that flat ground at Bridger Bowl does, December through March. That's shadier than 69% of the runs we've measured, and the 6th shadiest named run at Bridger Bowl. Its top sits at 7,410 feet.
Shaded snow stays colder and drier, so it holds powder longer after a storm and is slower to crust over or turn to slush in spring. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
